That's two billion roughly per life lost. Seems like a small price to pay. The CEO should be going to jail too. I highly doubt any of this will happen. Human lives are probably worth a million or two at most to a corporation like Boein

This is deregulation in action. This is what people clamor for when they say they want "small government." This is in no way a fringe position. It is deliberate and desired by an entire political party in the US. And it's har

This definitely explains why we have things like the drug war (and other idiotic pseudo wars) and can't even learn the second and third order effects of such prohibition after the mass experiment with alcohol prohibition in the twentie

So true. This argument is simply bullshit in the US. It's just another justification for ridiculous hiring tests and other stupidity that weeds out a lot of good candidates. You can hire someone today and fire them next week. It happen

Good. The quicker it fades, the quicker the US can stop supporting this brutal, vile regime and its disgusting human rights practices and culture. Also, the more pressure there will be to switch to a non fossile fuel energy source. It can&#

What do Washington's teeth have to do with opiates? There's no connection. Everyone had shitty teeth back then. The state has indeed become a monster.

Tapering is the only solution for kolonipin. Please check out https://www.benzo.org.uk/index.htm It sounds like you're on the right path. It took me around 3-4 months also, but time varies from person to person. Stay

Tapering off over the course of a few months or longer is especially important for benzodiazepines. Not doing so can lead to seizures or death. Luckily, it'll be pretty obvious to the patient if they are going too quickly and tapering

Opiates didn't really wreck many lives till they were made illegal. They didn't cause crime, they don't cause bodily harm, and most people used them and had normal lives. If we legalized them now we could stop wrecking lives

Calling the police on someone in the US is a specific intent to kill, thus murder. You know what's likely to happen and you make that call. That's murder.

By that reasoning nothing Parliament (or Congress in the US) ever does is democratic because no one asked the people directly. That's not how the government is set up. In fact, this was a non-binding referendum. If Parliament decides n

Absolutely disgusting. How can someone be so cruel as to spend money to stop a project meant to help people and save people's lives? It's just unbelievable how cruel and nasty people with even a little money can be towards others.

Totally agree. Unfortunately, most Americans are too stupid to see that even the phrase is ironic, referring to something that's literally impossible to do, just like the act it refers to in real life is for most Americans.
